Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

1

1. A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium having stored thereon machine-readable instructions to cause a processor to: obtain a plurality of images each including an object carrying a user device transmitting a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) signal; calculate a plurality of factors including a Mahalanobis distance, a deep feature distance, and an intersection-over-union (IOU) between a first object of the plurality of images and a second object of the plurality of images, each of the plurality of factors having a particular coefficient; determine, based on each of the particular coefficients, that the object matches a different object; and generate, responsive to visual information of the matched objects obtained from the plurality of images, a visual moving pattern such that the visual moving pattern is compared to a BLE moving pattern generated responsive to the BLE signal received from the user device.

2

2. The medium of claim 1 , further comprising instructions executable to adjust, responsive to visual information of each object, a probability that the object of the first of the plurality of images matches the different object of the second of the plurality of images.

3

3. The medium of claim 1 , further comprising instructions to adjust, responsive to the matched objects appearing in at least a portion of the plurality of images for more than a threshold quantity of times, the particular coefficients such that each of particular coefficients has a same value.

4

4. The medium of claim 1 , further comprising instructions executable to adjust, responsive to the matched objects appearing in at least a portion of the plurality of images for less than a threshold quantity of times, the particular coefficient of each of the plurality of factors such that a coefficient of the deep feature distance is greater than a coefficient of the Mahalanobis distance.

5

5. The medium of claim 4 , further comprising instructions executable to adjust a coefficient of the IOU to zero such that the IOU does not influence the matching.

6

6. The medium of claim 1 , further comprising instructions executable to assign an initial status to an object that is newly detected and not matched to at least one of the set of objects.

7

7. The medium of claim 1 , further comprising instructions executable to assign a confirmed status to a set of objects that is determined to be matching to each other when a quantity of the set of objects exceeds a threshold quantity of objects.

8

8. The medium of claim 1 , further comprising instructions executable to assign an invalid status to a first object responsive to a failure to match the first object to other objects of the plurality of images for a threshold quantity of times.

9

9. The medium of claim 1 , further comprising instructions executable to assign an invalid status to a set of objects responsive to a determination the set of object are moving out of a plurality of backgrounds corresponding to the plurality of images.
